UCCELLIERA BRUNELLO DI MONTALCINO 2018Undeniably pretty and slightly exotic, the 2018 Brunello di Montalcino wafts up with a multifaceted bouquet of wild strawberry, fresh mint, balsam herbs, cloves and hints of sweet smoke. This is luxuriously silky and supple, enveloping the palate in ripe wild berry fruits, as a tantalizing inner sweetness and hints of tobacco forms toward the close.

Undeniably pretty and slightly exotic, the 2018 Brunello di Montalcino wafts up with a multifaceted bouquet of wild strawberry, fresh mint, balsam herbs, cloves and hints of sweet smoke. This is luxuriously silky and supple, enveloping the palate in ripe wild berry fruits, as a tantalizing inner sweetness and hints of tobacco forms toward the close. Saline-minerals add an almost-crunchy feel through the finish, and while tannic, it doesn t distract at all from the 2018’s graceful nature, yet also energetic, as notes of plum and licorice linger on and on. This is a spectacular Brunello of the vintage. Andrea Cortonesi’s winery sits right below the hilltop town of Castelnuovo dell’Abate, skirting the southernmost borders of Montalcino. It is there that Cortonesi makes his Uccelliera and Voliero Brunello. While both wines are from the south of Montalcino, the Uccelliera is sourced entirely from vineyards around Castelnuovo dell’Abate, while Voliero comes from a combination of higher-elevation sites within Castelnuovo dell’Abate and parcels in Sant’Angelo in Colle. The two wines are always entirely different in character, showing a genuine stamp of terroir. In my experience, the warm vintages tend to favor Voliero, while Uccelliera is more successful in cooler years. Deciding between the two is often like splitting hairs, and in 2018, both were equally successful. For Cortonesi, the biggest challenge was the necessary work on the vines and soils as they were recovering from the torridly hot conditions of 2017. Cortonesi explained that the plants that struggled most in 2017 experienced irregular vigor, requiring constant work to lower yields and aerate bunches to prevent mold and disease in 2018. This resulted in a 15-20% reduction in volume. Moreover, there will be no Riserva from 2018, with all the intended fruit was used to bolster the Brunello.

Nice burrow toy for small to med dog
Style: Popcorn Bucket
We like it! He loves to dig into stuff so this is a perfect addition to his other burrow toys. The most compact and only one hole makes it somewhat challenging for him.

a fun toy!
Style: Popcorn Bucket
My dog absolutely loves this toy! I have to repeatedly stuff the pieces back inside so he can pull them out. That being said, if you have a heavy chewer this one will bite the dust pretty quick. It’s cute but not sturdy for chewers.

Perfect for keeping energetic pups busy, mentally stimulated, and happy!
Style: Milk & Cookies
I bought this interactive dog toy to keep my puppy mentally stimulated and it has been a huge hit! At first i was worried she wouldn't understand the concept but once i started squeaking the cookies inside the milk container she couldn't stop poking around until she was able to get all three cookies out. Trying to get the cookies out keeps her entertained but even after she gets them out she loves running around chewing and squeaking on the cookies. The milk container has holes just big enough to make her work a little but not get too frustrated, and the cookies are durable enough for her to keep chewing on without chewing right through them and without her hurting herself on them. Plus cleanup is easy too they wash quickly in warm water. Since the cookies are pretty small they can easily get lost under couches or beds.

My Cattle dog mix loves these!
Style: Popcorn Bucket
For a hyperactive super smart dog, this popcorn puzzle is a great treat! This is her second and she still plays with her first. I'm going to go ahead and probably buy her some other versions of puzzle toys. This is a good one. Buy it.

Needs to sell replacement popcorns
Style: Popcorn Bucket
My dog love this toy however, we have 5 popcorn buckets and only two popcorn balls left. It would be great if there was way to just buy the replacement popcorns. I haven't found them anywhere though.
